What do with this

So I have a pedal here with the best finish thanks to a Dirge project that never quite worked out (no hard feelings Evan, much love to the skullmaster general :hug: ).

And it's been sitting around here in a box for ages! That feels wrong so I want to do a thing with it, but I can't decide what...

I figure my options are:

1. get someone to rehouse several pedals that work well together into it (don't have any pedals complicated enough to fill it on their own except maybe pretty years and RM-1N and they already have dope enclosures).
2. buy a fugly complicated awesome pedal (are there any of these???) and get someone to rehouse it
3. commission a new crazy custom pedal of some sort
4. ????
5. profit (lol memes)


I kiinda like the idea of making a multi pedal but maybe it would get annoying not having them separately?? And what if I got sick of one of them!! Can't just flip it out no problem anymore... Also most of my serious favourites I really like their current enclosures. I JUST DON'T KNOW WHAT TO DO. :?: :?: :?:

Not sure if anyone will have any clever suggestions but I thought why not ask.

So. Does anyone have any clever suggestions?


and no, you can't have it. ;)

Well, it is a truly spectacular-looking enclosure. If it was me I would want to fill it with oscillators and stuff, probably would need help for that, but make it into a sick drone machine so my face could be as close to it as possible, tweaking and drinking in the art!

You should add a KWB somewhere in there.

How many knobs and switches is it drilled for?

Somewhere between many and lots...

Brb

Edit: looks like 10 knobs, 5 stomps, 6 holes for little switches/leds. Could probably get by with one led depending on exactly how many separate things are in it and how much they need switches...

Maybe someone could build you a PLL?

But do I want a pll?

These truly are the important questions

I did not aware of this. :lol:

They have anyways intrigued me for sure... definitely an option!

What about: fuzz+green ringer+dod octave down I have+treble booster+a couple of oscillation modes... that would be fun. Not as interesting as the pll probably though.

Maybe I should! I'm ashamed to say I've never tried a d+ of any kind. Could go with the ridiculous multi dirt box idea.

This is awesome but I think my noise needs are covered at the minute...

Had an atoner once and ehhhh I just never quite got it. I think maybe I would have found loads more uses and kept it if I were more into synth at the time

The answer obviously is dual Klons, but just add switches and LEDs that...look good.
